Rampage Reacts to Ortiz Injury + video

As previously reported, the Bellator MMA pay-per-view on
November 2nd has been canceled due to Tito Ortiz suffering a
neck injury during training.
Ortiz, who was scheduled to fight Quinton “Rampage” Jackson in
the main event of the show, reportedly fractured his neck in
training. The fight between the two has been canceled, but there
are still plans to try and schedule the match down the road, if
Ortiz is ever able to fight again, which in and of itself
remains a question mark.
The rest of the card that was scheduled for the Bellator
pay-per-view will now air as a free card on Spike TV on
Saturday, November 2nd.
Fans who had already ordered the pay-per-view event in advance
will receive a complete refund of their money.
Bellator MMA fighter Quinton “Rampage” Jackson appeared on AXS
TV’s Inside MMA on Friday (October 25) to discuss the recent
cancellation of his bout with Tito Ortiz for Bellator 106. Below
are some highlights and a video of the segments:
Jackson on wanting a replacement opponent: “If I’m going to keep
it real, I would have said, ‘Look, throw another opponent at me
and still keep the PPV because I trained really hard for this
and had my knees fixed,’” he said. “I wanted to show the world
and the fans that still support me that I’m back. Everybody
thought I was done after I lost my fight to ‘Shogun’ (Rua). …
Throw somebody else in there like ‘Kimbo Slice,’ Houston
Alexander, anyone in Bellator. … People talking about Tyrone
Spong – I don’t know his name. Throw anybody in there. I’m
ready. I’ll fight anybody. Pull Chuck Liddell out of
retirement.”
Jackson on wishing Ortiz a full recovery: “I hope Tito has a
speedy recovery. I know how it is when you’re a warrior and
you’ve been injured. Hell, I’ve been injured my last two fights.
It’s not a pretty sight. It’s really hard.”
Oh I have a video to for you to watch

It is funny that now the Tito vs rampage is not happening it has
gone on to free TV . That is very disrespectful to the rest of
the card ..
